Droplets begin as spherical shape before the influence of gravity determines their subsequent shape. Droplets of a liquid that are small enough evade the influences of gravity to the minimalist, due to their small surface area, hence maintains their spherical shape. As the droplet gets bigger, the increasing interfacial tension by gravity causes the internal pressure of the droplet to rise causing them to change shape vis-à-vis their viscosity.

In the case of liquid droplets, including water, surface tension is the factor, which is accountable for their shapes and configuration. Though can easily be malformed, the droplets of water seem to be pulled into a spherical shape due to the cohesive forces of the surface layer.  

In the non-existence of other forces, involving gravity, the drops of almost all the liquids would be almost spherical.

Organisms that originated in a certain geographic region and can only be found in that region are said to be ____.
aleksklad [387]

Organisms that originated in a certain geographic region and can only be found in that region are said to be endemic.

Explanation:

Endemic organisms are taxonomic species (plants and animals) which originates and distributed only in specific geographic regions. This state of evolution is called endemism.

They are said to be native or indigenous to that particular region which can be an ecological habitat, an entire nation, an island, a mountain range etc. Certain parts are known for majority of their species being endemic like St. Helen Island, New Caledonia Island, Hawaiian Islands, Southern regions of Africa, and Australia.

The species becomes endemic to a particular region because of the presence of certain bio-geographical environmental qualities of that habitat which are favorable to that species.

When these conditions become unfavorable, then species becomes restricted leading to endangerment or extinction of the species.

Examples:

  1. Kangaroo - Australia
  2. Nilgiri Tahr, - Nilgiri Hills, India
  3. The Redwood trees of West Coast of the USA
  4. Plants like kalo, sumac of Hawaii

What are growth and decay formulas
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Exponential Growth: y = a(1 + r)x

Exponential Decay: y = a(1 - r)x

Explanation:

Remember that the original exponential formula was y = abx.

You will notice that in these new growth and decay functions,

the b value (growth factor) has been replaced either by (1 + r) or by (1 - r).

The growth "rate" (r) is determined as b = 1 + r.

The decay "rate" (r) is determined as b = 1 - r
